UMI 300 North Zeeb Road Ann Arbor, MI 48103 Copyright by James Tyrus Seidule 1997 ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the morale of the American Expeditionary Forces during World War I to determine its competence. When examining morale military psychologists cite the importance of three factors: cohesion, esprit de corps, and biological and psychological needs such as health, rest, and nutrition. Morale, however, has more to it then the battlefield determinants, particularly in World War I. Societal values also played a key role. Officers and soldiers came into the army with idealistic and romantic expectations of war and service. Those expectations were particularly strong because the army used conscription without sufficient training to overcome prewar perceptions. This dissertation attempts to answer the question: how was the morale of the AEF? The morale of the AEF was poor. Most of this dissertation examines the causes for poor morale. Chapter 2 discusses the AEF's poor unit cohesion caused by a host of different factors. Chapters 3 and 4 describe the poor relations among officers caused by the rift between citizen-officers and professionals that contributed to poor officer leadership. Chapters 5 and 6 discuss the poor health of the AEF and the problems the medical system had in dealing with casualties. Finally, Chapter 7 describes the AEF's poor condition in the Fall of 1918, when it tried to launch the largest offensive in American history. This dissertation also describes the effect of poor morale on the AEF. Poor morale served as both an indicator of inferior battlefield performance and a factor in the Americans' tactical problems. The sorry state of the AEF in November, 1918 would probably have precluded it from continuing to fight into Germany in 1919. That is why studying morale»is important. It provides an evaluation of an army at the tactical level by assessing more than just tactics. In the case of the AEF, poor morale was a cause and a symptom of tactical ineffectiveness. Ill Dedicated to Shari IV ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This dissertation benefited from the input of many professors, colleagues, and graduate students. They helped me spot errors of fact as well as interpretation. My greatest thanks goes to Dr. Allan R. Millett who shepherded my progress through a thesis and a dissertation. As an advisor, scholar, and leader, he taught me how to teach, write, and most importantly how to think critically. I am a historian because of him and a much better army officer and leader. Despite a demanding schedule, he always found time to see me, and our discussions helped me clarify key issues. I learned much from the stellar professors at Ohio State, among them Dr. Williamson Murray, Dr. John Rule, Dr. Warren Van Tine, Dr. John Guilmartin, and Dr. Mark Grimsley. They taught me how to think and write more clearly and their unique presence in the classroom helped me develop my teaching style. I wrote much of this dissertation while teaching at the United States Military Academy (USMA). Blending the demands of teaching with research and writing is always a difficult task, but the members of the Department of History at USMA made it easier. The Department Head, Colonel Robert A. Doughty, a brilliant World War I historian, provided an atmosphere that allowed for both teaching and scholarship. He also gave me valuable French language sources and shared his manuscript on the French Army in World War I. My bosses in the Military History Division also supported my dissertation. Colonel James Johnson told me that a Ph.D. was possible and gave me frequent encouragement. Colonel Cole Kingseed smartly had me map out a timeline to finish my dissertation and demanded frequent updates that help me keep it a priority. As a boss and a mentor he provided me with a true example of how to "take care of your soldiers." Towards the end of my dissertation process, I was scheduled to teach an intensive two week course; instead. Colonel Kingseed taught it for me, freeing me to write and edit uninterrupted. Lieutenant Colonel Conrad Crane also sacrificed a month to teach that course so that I did not. He also shared his grandfather's diary with me as well as giving me encouragement. vi The administrative staff in the Department of History led by Mrs. Anne Lamb is extraordinarily efficient and allowed me to concentrate on the dissertation instead of other duties. Of particular note was Melissa Mills who kept me from missing deadlines and shepherded me through the sometimes strange processes at the Military Academy. I found the same efficiency at Ohio State as well. I would not have completed the administration requirements for the dissertation were it not for Beth Russell and Joby Abernathy. The staffs of the National Archives, the USMA library, the Military History Institute, and USMA archives gave me valuable assistance. Of particular note was Dr. Richard Sommers of the Military History Institute and Alan Aimone of the USMA Archives. Mentors are a rare breed, and I feel lucky to have had so many during this process. Two deserve special mention. Lieutenant Colonel William 0. Odom took me under his wing before I arrived at USMA, and even though he left to command an infantry battalion, I still find advice and tutelage whenever I need it. He showed me the process, the timeline, and the determination to finish a dissertation. In addition to his prodigious intellectual talents, he is VII the finest military officer I know. My other mentor is Dr. John M. Gates, who edited much of this dissertation and will probably see the rest of it soon. He sees through the chaff on most issues, and I value his counsel immensely. My colleagues from Ohio State and USMA have helped me during all phases of the graduate student experience. Major Verb Washington's computer guidance saved me in several instances from disaster. I value his friendship and his expertise. Captain Kelly Jordan read and edited parts of this dissertation. He has a first-rate mind and uses red ink well. Ron Kyle and Mark Jacobson provided me with friendship and facilities in Columbus. Captain Shawn Faulkner, an AEF scholar, shared his knowledge and sources with me. Our conversations honed my thinking. Finally, I want to thank my family. My father has taught history for forty-three years and is still the best teacher I have ever seen. My mother has continued to cheer for me even when I did not deserve it. I especially appreciate her frequent visits to care for "her boys" that allowed me to continue work on this dissertation. Peter and Wade, my two sons, have provided me with more then they will ever know. I learned time-management through them. If I wanted to spend time on this dissertation and play VIll with them, I had to figure out how to use my time more wisely. I hope I did. My greatest debt goes to my wife, Shari, for keeping the rest of my life in order while I worked. She is a superb mother and a wonderful wife. I am a better person for knowing her. Since I began this dissertation, she gave birth to our two sons, bore the majority of the parenting responsibility, and still gave me the encouragement I needed. She always did her best. Her morale never failed.

  • Tasker H. Bliss and the Creation of the Modern American Army, 1853-1930
    TASKER H. BLISS AND THE CREATION OF THE MODERN AMERICAN ARMY, 1853-1930 _________________________________________________________ A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board __________________________________________________________ in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY __________________________________________________________ by Thomas R. English December 2014 Examining Committee Members: Richard Immerman, Advisory Chair, Temple University, Department of History Gregory J. W. Urwin, Temple University, Department of History Jay Lockenour, Temple University, Department of History Daniel W. Crofts, External Member,The College of New Jersey, Department of History, Emeritus ii © Copyright 2014 By Thomas R. English All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT A commonplace observation among historians describes one or another historical period as a time of “transition” or a particular person as a “transitional figure.” In the history of the United States Army, scholars apply those terms especially to the late- nineteenth century “Old Army.” This categorization has helped create a shelf of biographies of some of the transitional figures of the era. Leonard Wood, John J. Pershing, Robert Lee Bullard, William Harding Carter, Henry Tureman Allen, Nelson Appleton Miles and John McCallister Schofield have all been the subject of excellent scholarly works. Tasker Howard Bliss has remained among the missing in that group, in spite of the important activities that marked his career and the wealth of source materials he left behind. Bliss belongs on that list because, like the others, his career demonstrates the changing nature of the U.S. Army between 1871 and 1917. Bliss served for the most part in administrative positions in the United States and in the American overseas empire.

  • William Preston and the Revolutionary Settlement
    Journal of Backcountry Studies EDITOR’S NOTE: This is the third and last installment of the author’s 1990 University of Maryland dissertation, directed by Professor Emory Evans, to be republished in JBS. Dr. Osborn is President of Pacific Union College. William Preston and the Revolutionary Settlement BY RICHARD OSBORN Patriot (1775-1778) Revolutions ultimately conclude with a large scale resolution in the major political, social, and economic issues raised by the upheaval. During the final two years of the American Revolution, William Preston struggled to anticipate and participate in the emerging American regime. For Preston, the American Revolution involved two challenges--Indians and Loyalists. The outcome of his struggles with both groups would help determine the results of the Revolution in Virginia. If Preston could keep the various Indian tribes subdued with minimal help from the rest of Virginia, then more Virginians would be free to join the American armies fighting the English. But if he was unsuccessful, Virginia would have to divert resources and manpower away from the broader colonial effort to its own protection. The other challenge represented an internal one. A large number of Loyalist neighbors continually tested Preston's abilities to forge a unified government on the frontier which could, in turn, challenge the Indians effectivel y and the British, if they brought the war to Virginia. In these struggles, he even had to prove he was a Patriot. Preston clearly placed his allegiance with the revolutionary movement when he joined with other freeholders from Fincastle County on January 20, 1775 to organize their local county committee in response to requests by the Continental Congress that such committees be established.

  • The Death of the Firm
    Article The Death of the Firm June Carbone† & Nancy Levit†† INTRODUCTION A corporation is simply a form of organization used by human beings to achieve desired ends. An established body of law specifies the rights and obligations of the people (including shareholders, officers, and employees) who are associated with a corporation in one way or another. When rights, whether constitutional or statutory, are ex- tended to corporations, the purpose is to protect the rights of these people.1 In the Supreme Court’s decision in Burwell v. Hobby Lob- by—and more generally in corporate and employment law—the firm as entity is disappearing as a unit of legal analysis. We use the term “firm” in this Article in the sense that Ronald Coase did to describe a form of business organization that or- ders the production of goods and services through use of a sys- tem internal to the enterprise rather than through the use of independent contractors.2 The idea of an “entity” in this sense † Robina Chair in Law, Science and Technology, University of Minneso- ta Law School. †† Curators’ and Edward D.
